This lively and well-documented account illuminates an important passage in African-Canadian history, combining historical records and modern research to present a portrait of the times, the people and the events that comprise the Maroons' saga in Nova Scotia.

Three distinguished authors tell the story of Halifax, from its beginnings as a British settlement to counter the French establishment at Louisbourg, to its present-day status as one of Canada's most appealing cities.

In this book Mark Finnan takes us on a voyage of discovery, exploring the facts and legends that surround Scotland's Prince Henry Sinclair and his possible voyage to Nova Scotia and New England in 1398.
